Since 1980 temperatures continue to shoot upward while solar activity has slightly declined. The data clearly demonstrates that global warming is driven by human activity and greenhouse gases and not from the variations in #solarenergy #ClimateEmergency #DonaldTrump #KatharinaReiche #ActOnClimate

Net zero is a legally binding target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to zero on balance by the year 2050. In 2019, the UK was the first major economy to adopt this goal into law. It means the total greenhouse gases the UK puts into the air must equal or be less than the amount removed from it.

The planet’s atmosphere held more water vapour in August than any other month on record, increasing the risk of extreme heat and rainfall around the world. A warmer atmosphere can hold more water, and the #ElNiño is pushing water vapour levels up www.theguardian.com/environment/... #ClimateEmergency

Preparing for hot summers and cold winters. Just installed 17 rolls of rockwool in my loft on top of old standard insulation. I now have >500mm in depth and reckon it will pay for itself in under 2 years. It's good for the planet, for my wallet and I should feel more comfortable around my home.

Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @london.gov.uk · 20/08/2026
The toxic air our children were breathing was stunting their lungs. For too many young Londoners, that was the reality before the ULEZ. New independent findings show their lung health has improved significantly in Central London. That’s the difference cleaner air can make.

TREES COOL STREETS Trees are an important part of our urban landscape. They give shade, reducing the average street temperature by as much as 8°. Thay also provide a habitat for small mammals, birds and insects to live in and feed on. They help capture CO2 and release O2. Water newly planted trees
